“We had a large party and this was our first visit to pier 50. Fina was our server and did such an amazing job. We really did have an amazing experience and she was so kind and patient. Food was great and the menu had great selections for sushi/proteins. We def enjoyed our time here and will be back !“

“Wow. Just had the most amazing sushi experience. New place Roku near our house. A curated experience with individual accompaniments with each fish type. This was the Sashimi presentation with more exotic fish. All are aged fish which added to the evening“

“First of all, the servers were amazing and attentive! Our total cost of 2 people doing the AYCE was around $90, which is fair. I believe it was $37 per person. The food quality was excellent and it wasn’t too busy. We went at 12:30pm on a Saturday.“

“Came Friday dinner, around 7pm, busy, ~80% full, took ~40mins for the food to start trickle in. The deep fried gyoza were not hot when came out. Surprisingly were only warm. Tried bento box 2 items: sashimi and teriyaki beef. I enjoyed the salad more than expected. Love the house sauce. Teriyaki beef and sashimi were decent. My husband ordered a roll, can't remember the name now, it's decent as well.“

“Silver Sake “Where Everybody Knows Your Name”. This is the go to place for sushi. It’s more than good food. It’s an experience. The staff from chefs, wait staff, to kitchen staff, greet, engage you with friendly smiles. The food is always amazing my kids enjoy their chef choice (Omakase) rolls. Matter of fact we always leave it up to the chef to make whatever they see fit to serve us. Never been disappointed and always left our appetites pleasantly satisfied. When it’s time to leave, as you walk out the doors, you’re always sent off with “ We’ll See You Tomorrow”. It takes every ounce of willpower to not return the next day.
Silver Sake Carmichael’s Hidden Gem!“

“Great sushi amazing staff, would recommend and give a 5 star“

“Lovely restaurant and great food! Sesame chicken is delicious“

“Excellent service and food! Will be back. Sushi has a good amount of fish in it, and the servers provide the best service. So happy I found this place! Jublee idk if I spelled his name right, was my server and was excellent. I mean seriously 5/5. Best server I’ve had in a long time. This place deserves way more recognition now!!!“

“Seoul 1979 was a great find. The service was quick, welcoming, and efficient, and the food tasted fresh and made with care.

I ordered the Bulgogi Cupbap and thoroughly enjoyed it. The beef was tender and flavorful, the ingredients tasted fresh, and the portion was satisfying without feeling overly heavy. The kimchi on the side was a nice added touch.

I can’t speak for the Japanese offerings, but based on the Korean food alone, I’d happily come back.“

“Teriyaki chicken and every meat taste really delicious and I really want to eat every day! Also, the Servers are really kind and helpful! I really like teriyaki grilled chicken in Arden mall!!“

“This place is amazing, we will definitely be back.“

“Delightful little venue. It's an order at the counter, then find a seat venue. They'll bring your food out to you when it's done. They'll also bus the table after you leave. Selection of authentic Japanese food gives you a fair amount of choices. Run by a Japanese family!“

“The broth was on hit! Even though I brought my own pepper sauce but the broth was cool. Out of all Shabu places I been this place gets a 10.“

“The best sushi in the area without question. They never skimp on portions and they always have the freshest fish, that just melts in your mouth. And of course, they always super friendly.“

“Checked Fuji out for brunch today. Cool atmosphere, great service, and excellent food. Big banquet room upstairs that holds 100 people. Excited to try them for dinner!“

“Been eating at Hana Tsubaki for 30 years and it’s consistently fantastic. The sushi is innovative and fresh and the salmon teriyaki is a favorite. Great saki selection as well.“

“We love this place. Much attention is given to presentation and the food is excellent. This time we tried the Black Cod Steak. Cooked perfectly in a lovely sauce on top of asparagus.
Their starters are also very good. In addition to the Sonomono we tried the breaded fried Oysters that came with a creamy crab dipping sauce. Again, excellent. If you are adventurous or just love trying new tasty foods you will love this place. It is small and you will want to get there early, if you don’t want to wait.“

“great family restaurant. friendly staff.“

“The staff are very friendly and professional. The food is delicious. I’ve never been unsatisfied with a dish I’ve ordered here, and we probably go once a month. The Lion King roll and Crazy Roll are personal favorites. The agedashi tofu and bbq albacore are also quite good! The restaurant doesn’t have the biggest footprint so it can get busy and a little loud during peak dinner hours. However, if you’re going for lunch or early dinner then it’s a very nice and relaxing place to be.“

“Overall amazing experience. Tonkatsu miso ramen was amazing. Boyfriends tantan spicy ramen was also delicious and not too spicy. Also got the chicken karaage which was cooked to perfection. Crunchy on the outside and moist on the inside. Definitely will come back to try other things. 🤩“

“The food left a very positive impression and the portion sizes felt well worth the price. Everything tasted fresh and satisfying, especially the teriyaki chicken, which stood out as one of the best I have had. It is a place I would happily visit again and recommend to anyone nearby.“

“Came here like around a month ago and here is my honest experience
Service: The wait times are really long. At the start, I would get my food in around 5-10mins, but then as we ordered more and more food, the wait times get really long. They also forgot to bring our orders in several occasions like I would order sashimi and also a certain roll as well. I understand that they might be forgot one or more things, but at the same time, this happened several times as well. I think the worse part was that the server limited just our table to the amount of sashimi in a AYCE restaurant. I was shocked to see that happening and I was disappointed that they would do that to us.
Food: the food was pretty good and that’s the only thing that I would come for. The presentation of the food is pretty good and there’s several options to choose from
Atmosphere: Pretty small, but not too bad

Overall, I would like to see a change in their customer service since it looks like it feels disorganized. I will change the rating if there are some changes.

Update: came back here today and their service is a lot better for sure. I got my food and service within a reasonable amount of time. definitely will come back again“

“Sushi was really really good, I got the 49’r and my friend got the Pacific (it was too plain for him though, but it is listed as a beginner’s roll, so it makes sense) and we got the heart attack (stuffed jalapeño) as an appetizer which was so good, the service was amazing and I’ll definitely be coming again“

“Solid food with a wide variety of menu items, casual vibe, and excellent service. Our waitress was so invested in our comfort the entire time. She was always refilling waters, getting us more napkins or small plates or ginger, and asking if we needed anything. We were a huge group and she was MOVING to accommodate all of us- it was really nice to feel so valued! Would definitely come back just for the service, but the food was also good!“

“wonderful little place. clean, excellent service, outstanding food. try it when you get a chance.“

“Honestly I don't know how it gets better than TT fire l for what it is. Nice guy at the counter, food came quickly, it was delicious... What else is there? Clean restaurant..I'll be back. Reasonable prices. Had the honey spicy chicken and my wife had the sesame chicken. Both were great with ample portions. Can't miss.“

“Had a Land Park roll & an OMG roll! So good! Will go again!“

“Just finished lunch. Absolutely excellent. We started with the Mixed Tempura and the Pork Gyoza. My wife had the Chubby Andy roll and I had the Katsudon. The mixed tempura was perfect. The sweet potato and the kabocha are always the test and these were tender without being too soft. The gyoza were delicious. The Chubby Andy is a great roll. Huge flavor with a fantastic sauce. The Katsudon was first rate. This is the best Katsudon in Sacramento.
Thank you for making a casual Friday afternoon lunch a real treat.“

“I eat here every week with my dad , food is great ,service great and prices are good“

“A MUST VISIT! The service was delightful, so nice, helpful and just generally pleasant. The food was being delicious! All types of Japanese cuisine so there is something for everyone. Kid friendly as well! The portions are very satisfying, one roll, hand roll, and a small cup of miso was plenty for me, the big kiddo was in line with his dragon roll (pictured) and the beautiful food art on it, as well as a chicken noodle plate. The littlest had maybe half of the kids ramen and plenty of edamame. Really, very pleased with the food quality and the service. We will definitely be going back!“

“The flavor of this place has had me coming back for decades. Plus family owned and I love their faces 🥰“

“variety looks so fresh and delicious! bringing a friend for our first visit to Vacaville location on Sunday..can't wait!“

“I've been coming here for over 16 yrs. I'll be very honest the only thing I order is the Bibimbap #17, no spicy. I just love the sesame sesame seed oil. The vegetables are gently sauteed in the sesame seed oil, chicken is char grilled for the prefect touch of smoke..they have some traditional items that look fresh and delicious.“

“Havent been out in a few months. Came here to get my usual. Food was perfect as usual. But shout out to brooke for making the entire experience feel like i never left. Friendly. Fast service. And made me feel like a valued customer. Blu nami just keeps winning. 10/10.“

“Very kind and considerate host, attentive to your wants needs and if you have allergies to any food.they take very good care of everyone, even the cooks come and speak with you, took very good care of my family, im forever grateful they made our visit memorable.“

“Excellent food & service.Great.“

“Best option for food in the mall hands down!! You already breaking the bank why pay the price to on your health as well??? Eat healthy, feel better!!!! Yum . On my way to eat here second day in a row. Thank you for providing healthy option here in the galleria mall!!!“

“The service was attentive but we felt rushed. I was trying to enjoy my food but the server was hovering and would snatch our plates as soon as they were empty. She almost snatch one dish which still had food on it. I'm not a slow eater but I want to enjoy my food.“

“Simply a marvelous surprise. Could well have been the tastiest restaurant meal I’ve ever eaten… it was that good.“

“Highly recommend if you’re in the rosemont area. The food itself is very yummy & the service workers are very kind. Decided to try this place because it was local and near my house for a quick bite, but I was pleasantly surprised with the taste of the food. We are now frequent visitors at this place 😊 10/10“

“My boyfriend and I now frequent Sushi Star since discovering the place a couple of months ago! It’s always very clean. A very pleasant atmosphere. Our waitress has always been Yi. She is very pleasant and thorough. Now, then there is the master sushi chef, Eric! IOHO we think he makes the best sushi we have ever had hands down! Our BIGGEST RECOMMENDATION IS THE BAKED SCALLOPS! ABSOLUTELY DYNAMITE! Thanks guys! Neil & Courtney“

“try it out people always say they want something new something different. Well here's something different so try it out!“

“Edit: Updated to 5 stars, I was just hangry. Still love this place and will be back very soon for another Deluxe plate!!!

Love the food, one of my favorite places. But last time I used the online ordering system, it sent my food to the wrong location. I called to ask what happened, but what I was told is that all I could do is come pick up my already cold order. It was good but cold. Ill come back because I like the food, but customer service could use a little work.“

“We visited Tangs for the first time on the 3rd of July. Exceptionally busy but even with a slower service than we anticipated we absolutely will be back. It was worth the wait!“

“Wonderful experience best customer service food is so good it’s a 10/10“

“We were visiting Sacramento for 1 day and saw the reviews for Sushi Cafe - so we tried it out - and we weren't disappointed. The sushi was very good, the staff was friendly, and the prices were quite reasonable. The only thing that disappointed was the Oyako Don - which was overcooked. All in all - this was a great find.“
